I'm 17 and I've been looking to buy/lease a car. don't know yet.
well, my guardian is telling me that leasing a car would be better than buying a car, because then you don't have to worry about havin car problems. It'll cost a lot to fix it and stuff. and he said just find one that will cost me less than 200 bucks a month (doesn't seem that bad) and if I want to buy it in the end I can. *which I might depends
well buyin doesn't seem that bad besides having problems with the car and crap. I just need the car to get me through college and last year of high school. it's summer and I'm taking multiple jobs, and will still work during school year. I have NO credit history, I don't think I do anyway I mean I'm only 17...so IDK. but my guardian has like SUPER AWESOME credit history. so I guess my question is well is leasing a car kinda like taking a loan out on a car? I know not for a fact that he can co-sign the loan for me. but i'm not sure about leasing... He probably will co-sign it for me but we're just not sure if I can even lease the car.
I won't look for a super expensive car, just looking for a good car with awesome MPG, and the up side for leasing is that it'll be under warrant so it shouldn't break down or have problems.
Any help/info will be greatly appreciated.
I'm in the state of Iowa.
 
probably not, in most states the ago of Majority is 18. If you sign a lease agreement, it is voidable at your discretion later. A dealership- finance company is not going to put themselves in that position.
